Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Die gedigte in hierdie bundel bied vir die eerste keer in Afrikaans 'n eerlike, rou dimensie op die mens se begeerte om God te begryp, buite die periferie van die kerk. Die gedigte distansieer hulle van die tradisionele (kerklike) opvatting oor God . Dit is trouens rebels en aggressief teenoor die begrip God ingestel. God word as afwesig en onsigbaar beleef, wat daartoe lei dat die mens die persepsie het dat hy, die mens, vereensaamde wese is wat bestem is om te ly. Die bestaan van God, op die tradisionele manier as vader en persoonlike vriend word onbevrees verwerp. Die uitkoms van die stryd is positief.

Download or read book The Pastoral Nature of the Ministry written by Frank Wright and published by Trinity PressIntl. This book was released on 1980-01 with total page 89 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Generations of clergy have been accustomed to assume that pastoral training is concerned with the practical side of their ministry: how to organize, how to visit, how to hold the baby when baptizing. Ultimate questions of purpose and value were ignored. Often this can still be the case, but such an approach inevitably seems superficial when the question haunting any minister explicit or unspoken, is 'what am I for?' This is the question which Frank Wright never allows to be forgotten. Without vision, he argues, there can be no effective pastoral ministry. And vision means above all the refusal to escape into clerical havens of parochial organization and liturgical reform and the acceptance of the real demands made on anyone who tries to be a real pastor and counsellor. This book is short, vivid, down-to-earth and easy to read; at the same time it is demanding reading, because what it recognizes as the essentials of the ministry ask so much: openness, insight, self-awareness, unlimited caring. Paradoxically, much of what Frank Wright says stresses the essential humanness of the pastor and his ministry, blurring yet further the lines between priesthood and the rest of the world; yet as in so many other spheres, loss is gain, and what finally emerges is indeed a vision which could give new purpose to pastoral care. `This is a very good book. In my opinion it is a must for all clergy and ordinands, no matter of what denomination and churchmanship. Because of its direct simplicity of style, combined with the depth and insight of its message, I would also hope that it would reach a much wider readership among all those who are concerned with pastoral ministry, ordained or lay' (Theology). `If it were possible I would make a present of this book to all who are "called to minister" on the strict condition they read it again and again' (Methodist Recorder).
